Lightsabers and Lollipops

they will fry anything at this bowling alley. ...anything.




mmmm fried pickles.

i wish i was eating them right now.

hopefully entertaining?



i realize i look absolutely nothing like mark wahlberg, but i did try to flex as much as possible for the pic.



"i'ma get mine! so get yours! i wanna see sweat comin out yer pores!"

again with the toys?



these are from harry potter. the three headed dog from the first one. again, pretty pricey, but some parents got the cash to spoil their bratty kids. probably the same parents who made the news by buying their kids dangerous live owls cuz their kids favorite fictional character had one.

and yes, here i go making the reference to ben affleck from jay and silent bob strike back: fictional characters!



the buckbeak is actually pretty cool.



and this one just ain't right. harry potter fan or not, there is no way any kid should be able to go to sleep with this hanging above his/her bed. i wouldn't even feel comfortable having it in the corner of the room with the lights off. when i wake up in the middle of the night or even early morning not all my senses are working. so seeing even a stuffed animal of aragog or azrael or bethuzalah or whatever his name is (you harry potter nerds can feel free to correct me all you want, that's what the comments are for.) i would be freaked out and probably start throwing things at it for a god 5 minutes before i realized it was a kids toy.

oh well.


save the cheerleader. save the world.

fly, my evil pet!!! flyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!


what kind of spoiled brat kid....?


sure, this dragon is really cool and all but:

A) what kids room is big enough to have this inside it, and have room for anything else once it's inside.

2) it's like 3000 dollars American.

?) if it's gonna cost that much and take up that much space, it better have extra features like a surround sound system with plasma screen and sandwich maker and slurpee machine while doing my taxes figuring out how i can somehow get 3000 dollars worth of refunds from uncle sam. so there.

but i think it's just stuffed. who knows, people buy some pretty crazy things in vegas when they think they are on a roll.

and that's it. my thoughts are done on this matter.

...for now...


don't touch my stuff.

this picture rocks!



y'know, for being a respected and mighty leader as Optimus Prime is, he sure does go down easy.
i mean, ninjas are cool and all (and especially Storm Shadow here. he's been my favorite since way back when.) but to be taken out by just one of them is pretty sad for a gigantic alien robot the size of a truck.

come to think of it! ninjas, or any other martial arts masters do always seem to do so much better when fighting by themselves.
let's look back on all the kung fu movies you've seen. when the lone warrior is fighting like 100 guys he does better than any of them can seem to muster. (i know they all only attack one at a time. i've always hated that, and you should too.) so if you are going to be an ultimate ninja warrior. leave your friends behind and go solo. if you watching somebody else's back you will probably get kicked in the teeth. so much for teamwork.
that's just in movies kids.
in real life, if you don't have anybody looking out for you, then you had better pick your fights one person at a time. if you go swinging at 100 guys at once. you probably won't walk away. literally. you will probably never be able to walk. again.


anyway.
as much as Optimus Prime does die in each scenario, he still gets more respect in the sci-fi.nerd world than Darth Maul.
not too many fanboys out there that like to talk fondly of everything he owned getting split in half.

oh well.

so wifey said she didn't care much for the movie Across The Universe.
this made me sad.

she can go back to watching her reality shows featuring people rebuilding houses while changing into more fashionable clothes while learning how to be a better model who can cook and lose the most weight.

ah well, whatcha gonna do?


on a lighter note:

Electric Boogaloo.

here's the kind of day i've been having:

every stop light i drove towards today turned yellow at the worst time.

that's the best way to describe it...

I GOT YOUR TALL STEVE SUNDAY RIGHT HERE!!!



here is a pic of Tall Steve and a goat at F.A.O. Schwartz.

both disgruntled.


Vegas, baby.

i popped in the movie Across The Universe (which i've been looking forward to since i saw the phenomenal preview) and one of the movies advertised was an entire film based on chicks reading Jane Austen novels.
and to me that sounds like one of the scariest movies ever made, and i've seen Honey.

but honestly... it looks like a really good movie.

it hurts me to admit that.
i learned to hate chick flicks.
they cause teenage pregnancies.

FA LA LA-LA-LA-LA-LAAAA FA LA-LA LA-LAAAA



i don't think the Smurfs ever properly thanked Gargamel for making Smurfette for them.
for those of you who don't know Smurf history, Gargamel created Smurfette as an evil spy.
which in retrospect, was a terrible plan. sure, send a little hottie female into a camp full of all guys in the times before it was "okay to be gay." she'll blend right in. like a fly on the wall....
well, Papa Smurf wasn't gonna have none of that, so he used his "big poppa" magic to turn Smurfette over to the Smurf side (and blonde of course. she was originally brunette. but since Papa was already playing god, why not go a little further aund go with what gentlemen preferred.)
but nope, the Smurfs never uttered a thank you to Gargamel for providing them at least one chick to hang out with.
they never even sent him a card. ungrateful little blue bugs.
heck, i even figured there would be some rogue Smurfs who would even go to Gargamel on the sly and request more of the womens to populate their fungus filled village.
then everybody could have date night! and not just wait for their turn with Smurfette.
everybody except for Brainy Smurf. he deserves no prizes or rewards.

i just hate him so much. (shakes fist)



PEACE!!!

hi. my name is Space, and i like to party.


so i went to the place where they let me borrow DVD's for free (i believe the ancient Egyptians called them libraries) and i noticed that i had already borrowed just about everything cool from there already. so it was slim pickin's. i ended up finally breaking down and picked up the movie Stick It.

this movie has been calling out to me for who knows how long and i constantly thought the girl on the cover was flipping everybody off. (telling them where they could stick it, i guess)
so i finally looked closer at the cover and i noticed that:
A) it's from the writers of Bring It On. that movie is fun and dumb all at the same time.

2) that although not pictured on the cover, jeff bridges is in it. and although he has played many good roles, i will always remember him as The Dude. and don't nobody mess with The Dude.

8) the tagline was beautiful.
"It's not called gym-nice-tics"

and yes, i did laugh out loud when it was actually said in the movie.
i stopped counting how many times they actually say Stick It in the dialogue. i guess they just wanted to make their point.

i popped in the movie out of curiosity and ended up watching it from start to finish. i'm not ashamed to tell you that it was a highly enjoyable film.
there, i said it.

but let's get something straight here.
everybody has certain things in their lives that they like.... but somehow can't explain why or how they enjoy such things.

here's a list of things that i really like but somehow it just doesn't make any sense at all that i do.

!) Prince.
i've written before that i'm somewhat of a Prince fan but somehow he just doesn't go along with all the heavy/industrial/angry/metal//hardcore music i've been into for most of my life.
i can't really blame kevin smith, i think he just exacerbates the issue.

@) movies where the entire plot revolves around dancing to prove who is better.
i am not talking about musicals here. i am talking about movies that lead up to some big dance contest. examples being:
breakin'
breakin' 2: electric boogaloo
you got served
stomp the yard
step up
step up 2: electric boogaloo

the sad but true thing is, i can't dance. i don't know if i ever had any rhythm. somehow i have a 5th beat that sneaks in there and screws everything up.
so yeah, maybe it's jealousy or envy that makes me watch. but i'd like to think it's just plain funny that so much drama can be built around getting served or stealin each others moves.
sucka.



actually, those are the two things that can't be explained. i'm sure there was at least a third one but it has gone bye-bye from my brain.

so on that note, we cue the music.


BRING IT!!!



P.S. i have never seen any of the sequels to bring it on, and i intend to keep it that way. consider it broughten.
